Central Square

Nestled in between Ivy League institution Harvard and the science and technology hub that is MIT, Central Square is the melting pot of Cambridge. Constantly bustling with people from all walks of life, regardless of the time of day, the square is packed with ethnic restaurants and is home to one of Boston’s most revered music venues. Be sure to bring some green– a lot of hot spots are cash-only.

“Join the party!” reads the Soviet-era mural painted onto the outside of this cash-only dive bar. Play a round of darts, congregate under the sole of a giant metal military boot, or admire the propaganda posters covering the bright red walls while enjoying a beer.
